According to Stelzer, "when the final figures are in they are likely to show that we enter the new year with consumer spending -- accounting for about 70 percent of the economy -- rising at a real (inflation-adjusted) annual rate of something like 4 percent." And Stelzer believes that overall economic growth in 2011 will likely be in the neighborhood of 3.5 to 4 percent.
The article goes on to say that if Obama hadn't cratered on Bush tax cuts and such that these numbers wouldn't have been as good. That it very true in my opinion, but how are we supposed to convince the ignorant voting masses that the improving economy wasn't all Bushes fault?
